What's Included in Professional Tree Trimming

Every tree trimming job includes hazard removal, crown cleaning, and proper shaping cuts that promote healthy growth. We remove dead, diseased, or damaged branches first, then focus on improving the tree’s structure and appearance.

You get cleanup and debris removal as part of the service. We don’t leave piles of branches for you to deal with. Our equipment chips most material on-site, and larger pieces are hauled away completely.

Emergency situations get priority response. When storms damage trees or create immediate hazards, we mobilize quickly to make your property safe. Our arborists assess what can be saved and what needs immediate removal, giving you options instead of assumptions about what needs to be done.

How often should trees be trimmed on Long Island?

Most trees benefit from professional trimming every 3-5 years, but it depends on the species, age, and location. Fast-growing trees like maples might need attention every 2-3 years, while slower-growing oaks can go longer between trimmings. Trees near power lines, over roofs, or in high-traffic areas need more frequent attention for safety reasons. The key is having a certified arborist evaluate your specific trees and property conditions rather than following a rigid schedule.

What's the difference between tree trimming and tree pruning?

Tree trimming typically refers to removing overgrown branches for safety, appearance, and property clearance. Tree pruning is more focused on the tree’s health – removing diseased branches, improving structure, and promoting proper growth patterns. In practice, professional tree care often combines both approaches in the same service. We assess each tree’s needs and use the right techniques whether that means trimming for clearance or pruning for health and structure.

Can tree trimming be done year-round in New York?

Most tree trimming can be done year-round, but timing matters for optimal results. Late fall through early spring is ideal for most species because trees are dormant and won’t lose sap from cuts. However, emergency trimming for safety hazards should be done immediately regardless of season. Some trees, like maples and birches, are best trimmed in late summer to avoid heavy sap flow. A professional arborist considers the species, condition, and urgency when scheduling work.

How much does professional tree trimming cost in Ronkonkoma?

Tree trimming costs depend on the tree’s size, condition, location, and complexity of the work. Smaller trees might cost $200-500 to trim, while large trees near structures or power lines can cost $800-1500 or more. Emergency work and difficult access situations increase costs. The best approach is getting a free estimate based on your specific trees and property. We provide detailed quotes that explain what’s included so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Is it safe to trim trees near power lines myself?

Never attempt to trim trees near power lines yourself. Even branches that aren’t touching wires can conduct electricity, and the risk of electrocution is extremely high. Contact your utility company for trees directly interfering with power lines – they often handle this at no charge. For trees near but not touching lines, hire certified arborists with proper training and equipment. We coordinate with utility companies when necessary and follow all safety protocols for work around electrical hazards.

What happens to the branches and debris after trimming?

Complete cleanup and debris removal is included in our tree trimming service. We chip smaller branches on-site using professional equipment, and larger pieces are cut into manageable sections and hauled away. You can request to keep some wood for firewood if you want, but otherwise your property is left clean. We also rake up small debris and twigs, so you don’t have cleanup work after we’re finished. The goal is leaving your property looking better than when we arrived.
